CHELSEA have the ominous task of facing Barcelona in the Champions League last 16.
Manchester City may be more pleased than their Premier League rivals as they will face Swiss side Basel.
Manchester United, only hours after losing the city derby against their big rivals, were drawn away to Sevilla.
Tottenham will be away and then home to Juventus, while Liverpool were drawn to play Porto over two legs.
Although Chelsea fans probably don’t think so now, especially following the weekend’s shock loss to lowly West Ham, but there is a positive in facing Barcelona.
The Catalan club’s superstar Lionel Messi has never scored in eight appearances against the Londoners, which is his worst record against a team in his entire career.
Tottenham, who won their group despite facing defending champions Real Madrid, also have one positive going there way as they get set to face Juventus.
The Italian side have been eliminated in each of their last five ties with English teams in Europe. The draw took place at Uefa headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.
PSG were favourites to win the tournament before the draw but the odds have changed and now it’s Manchester City.
